i need help to learn italian in 2 years do you have suggestions
i have italian friends im bothering but yk
sono è un idiota :/
Ciao!
Okay first of all I cannot guarantee you can make it in two years: it depends on the level you want to reach, and how much you'll be able to study&practice/find time to schedule some Italian in your daily (or at least weekly) time. This said, for sure you can become a beginner if not even an intermediate... it depends on what level you are now as well.
It also depends on what you need to do in two years: I mean, if you for example want to come here on vacation, it's perfectly fine to be a beginner and talk English as well when necessary.
Now, you can find all the resources I have in the various masterposts on @sayitalianohome: there's grammar, vocabularies, audio/reading/apps resources and especially suggestions on how you may want to try to study on the daily.
I can already suggest you to go slow and don't rush things: I understand you "only have two years" and you already want to speak Italian fluently but rushing won't take you there, ever. It will just make you more confused.
Learn easy vocabularies (animals, colors, forniture, food... things you see on the daily + how they change in gender/number) and verbs conjugation first, starting with the auxiliary ones: eg. from your last line, "sono" or "è" un idiota? Who is an idiot? You (io sono) or one of your friends (lui/lei è)?
Try to start translating easy sentences (as this one) word by word: subject, verb, and eventually direct complement. Longer more complex ones can wait for when you'll know more vocabs and own the basic grammar of this pretty complicated language.
Best of lucks, here I am if you need further help/infos!

Okay I've found out that some of my childhood cartoons are being uploaded on YouTube and even if they're probably only available in France I'm pretty sure using Invidious can pass through the restrictions. So I need to make you a post about french cartoons soon.
My scholar year is nearly finished. I have a 2 week holidays then one last week of exams and it's done ! I have pretty good grades and having fun (though it's a LOT of work dammit) :) After that I'll have around one month to relax and I'm working this summer... I hope I'll be able to post some stuff here from what I've learnt this year !
Hope you're all good there~

First day 🍓
Tomorrow is my first day and I hope that by posting this I’ll be more invested and motivated, i made a little list of everything that I wanna do that envolves:
🎀 Going to the gym
🎀 Doing my morning skincare ( my skin is having some breakouts and since I introduced a lot of products at once I don’t really know what caused the reaction so I’ll be using only a moisturizer)
🎀 Study italian (I’ve been wanting to learn some languages and criated a little system to make it work for me) so after that I will do at least 15 minutes of duolingo for dutch
🎀 I also really wanna learn about programming, so I also want to take about an hour or two to start
🎀 Read 30 pages of a book
🎀 Do my night skin care (also just moisturizer)

14/02/22 : Day 14 of February productivity challenge.
Day 14: What's a youtube channel you really like?
I don’t really watch a YouTuber religiously. I’m more of a watch a bunch of YouTube shorts kind of person but since I really enjoy cooking I watch a lot of Lisa Nguyen and other people she collabs with, apart from that I’m not that big on YouTube. I did have a phase when all I would do is watch YouTube but I am definitely past that.
